The Church of Uganda Archbishop Dr. Samuel Stephen Kazimba Mugalu, has called upon Ugandans to embrace dialogue to end abductions and security attacks.
Kazimba who was delivering his Christmas sermon at All Saints Church at Nakasero said nothing is unsolvable once dialogue is embraced.
This year and last year have seen several attacks on police officers, soldiers, and private security guards on duty.
The assailants have shot at least more than 10 police officers, soldiers, and private security guards and taken their firearms.
The last incident happened at Kyabadaza police station in Butambala where armed men fired several bullets into the station forcing police officers to flee. The attackers later torched the police station and released the suspects.
Prior to the attack at Kyabadaza police station, the armed men first shot to death two civilians identified as Ibra Kalyango and Peter Nsubuga who tried to question their presence in Kasule Ayanguwa village at 11 pm.
Kazimba’s message comes two days after the Inspector General of Police, Martin Okoth Ochola listed the attacks on his men as one of the most challenging crimes of this year
But Kazimba says all such incidents point to the fact that there is a problem that is growing and only dialogue could lead to an everlasting solution.
